Alcohol Thoughts

If i could summon you to my perception Or host you whole to my being Only then Only then would you fathom the wreckage And take a dip in my alcohol thoughts Or come watch me redeem my aggravating flaws Hues from my mouth dripping void , dripping scarlet Like the letter except that im unwritten And the sounds of ill relief form an orchestra in my ears They are diamonds , not tears Pulled triggers not passing years Im only dreaming when my my head hangs low only winning when my mind is stray Im more familiar with the shattered glass yet your touch cracks more of me Be the muse to my blues Or just be , thats enough for me Pour gasoline to the inferno Hang me by the neck like your dartboard , aim the dart I'd rather you be the wretched end of me than anybody be my clean cut start They'd offer you umbrellas in the rain Then you'd have me asking if all is resolved by my lipstick stain? During the harvest they'd help you with your grain I, my eyes'd mist pleading in your arms wondering whether your love for me was washed by your terrain But darling , if you chose the vodka off the rack of the champagne You'd have to accept the bitter warmth of it , hauling at you like acidic rain
